Do I have a reason to be upset?
I know, I know, male obgyns are just doing their job. It isn't that I feel like they are more prone to be inappropriate or anything of the sort but I just personally feel more comfortable with a female doctor doing my paps or exams..when picking my ob for my pregnancy I specified I wanted a female dr. They informed me that there are 4 drs in rotation at the office and I'd see each of them at least once. Ok...so my 2nd appointment at 10 weeks pregnant..I wasn't informed of any paps or vaginal exams prior. Nurse does her thing and says oh by the way, even though your up to date on your pap they didn't do an hpv test so dr will need to do a pap today...this is my first appointment with the male dr, I wasn't expecting a pap or vaginal exam of any sort. I asked if I could do it at my following appointment with the female doc and was told no it had to be done that day. I was so taken back and felt so uncomfortable. Is this ok!? Am I over reacting?
